+## Managing Auracast systemd Services
+
+You can run the backend and frontend as systemd services for easier management and automatic startup on boot.
+
+### 1. Install the service files
+Copy the provided service files to your systemd directory (requires sudo):
+
+```bash
+sudo cp auracast-server.service /etc/systemd/system/
+sudo cp auracast-frontend.service /etc/systemd/system/
+```
+
+### 2. Reload systemd
+```bash
+sudo systemctl daemon-reload
+```
+
+### 3. Enable services to start at boot
+```bash
+sudo systemctl enable auracast-server
+sudo systemctl enable auracast-frontend
+```
+
+### 4. Start the services
+```bash
+sudo systemctl start auracast-server
+sudo systemctl start auracast-frontend
+```
+
+### 5. Stop the services
+```bash
+sudo systemctl stop auracast-server
+sudo systemctl stop auracast-frontend
+```
+
+### 6. Disable services to start at boot
+```bash
+sudo systemctl disable auracast-server
+sudo systemctl disable auracast-frontend
+```
+
+### 7. Check service status
+```bash
+sudo systemctl status auracast-server
+sudo systemctl status auracast-frontend
+```
+
+If you want to run the services as a specific user, edit the `User=` line in the service files accordingly.
